During the Alliance's expedition into Draenor, Danath headed the company that hunted Ner'zhul. In Terokkar Forest, they were eventually exhausted and tired by the constant travel, and camp was set up for a night of rest. Thalressar and Herrick both agreed to honour the sacrifices of the Wildhammer clan and designate the location of what would one day become Allerian Stronghold, becoming its founders by doing so. Thalressar said that it would stand as a symbol of the alliance between elves, men and dwarves.

By drinking alcoholic beverages the player can see pink elekks in at least 6 locations around the stronghold. This is a reference to the Disney movie Dumbo, where in the main character accidentally gets drunk & hallucinates about Pink Elephants.

Completing the quest [65] The Final Code, provides a barrel of Brightsong Wine. Besides this, Allerian Stronghold seems dried out of alcohol, so one may have to look elsewhere for some beverages.
